| Reverse description | The emperor depicted as an equestrian figure in military attire, galloping vigorously to the right upon a prancing horse, the rider's posture conveying martial authority and imperial dynamism. The composition occupies the central field of the flan, with the civic ethnic legend disposed in the field or periphery. The style is consistent with provincial bronze coinage of Asia Minor from the Antonine period, with the horse rendered in a lively, energetic pose typical of equestrian types issued under Marcus Aurelius by eastern mints. |
